here is somebody's reply on news://microsoft.public.scripting.wsh
DO NOT ask me to explain everything in the quote, I myself do not fully understand the content yet.
I believe there is. It's called WIA Automation Layer (i.e. Windows Image
Acquisition Automation Layer 2.0). It's basically a DLL that needs
registering, and then you get all sorts of objects and methods available
from WSH. It's free from Microsoft, but I believe it needs a minimum of
Windows XP SP1 and also dotNET v1.1.
N.B. Don't get WIA (Windows Imaging Architecture) confused with WIA (Windows
Image Acquisition) nor is it to be confused with WIA Scripting Model. These
three things are related (I think) but all very different topics.
N.B. WIA Automation Layer supersedes the older WIA Scripting Model.
Anyway, here's an overview of WIA Automation Layer
http://windowssdk.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms630827.aspx
Download here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=a332a77a-01b...
i.e. "Windows® Image Acquisition Automation Library v2.0 Tool: Image
acquisition and manipulation component for VB and scripting"
Unzip the file, read the docs, and then start to play.
I can't supply an example of accessing a WebCam, although I'm sure it is
possible - anyway, attached below is my example of using WIA Automation
Layer v2.0. Search the code for:
CreateObject( "WIA.
...and you'll also need to search the Web for other examples.
In my example code I use WIA Automation Layer to convert JPG to BMP and to
re-size the image. Watch out for word/line wrap if you cut and paste.
Good luck.
Regards,
Dave.
